Witam.I contraceptive AXIA . On December 9, the doctor prescribed me Macromax, I took it on December 9,10,11. On December 20, I had unprotected intercourse. Could the antibiotic still weaken contraception, is there a risk of getting pregnant?

The protection is already in place and there is no need to worry. The antibiotic may weaken the effect of birth control pills - during antibiotic therapy and for 7 days after the end of antibiotic treatment. In your case, 9 days have passed, so protection is already assured.
